My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

When Lu Yinheng learned that a big tiger had come to the military camp, he was frequently distracted and couldn't help but wonder if Ji Yunshuang had sent someone to deliver a message again.

What has she been doing all this time without any news?

In the end, his thoughts inevitably lingered, as always, on who she was and what her purpose was...

But no matter how many times he thought about it, he could never figure it out.

Upon learning that Fu Ci needed to speak with him, he quickly put aside his chaotic thoughts and rushed to Fu Ci's tent.

Upon seeing Lu Yinheng, Fu Ci said directly, "Select several thousand skilled men from the new recruits to go to Ningxing Prefecture and join forces with Commander Ji. All subsequent actions will be under her command."

"Does she want us to lead our troops to join her and take Ningxing Prefecture together?" Lu Yinheng's tone was tinged with surprise.

It wasn't just because of Ji Yunshuang's bold plan, but also because of Fu Ci's decision.

He wouldn't suddenly give him this order.

Thinking that Tianrui and the guard surnamed Zhong came to the military camp today, she must have sent someone to deliver a message.

Therefore, the order Fu Ci gave him must be related to Ji Yunshuang.

Putting everything else aside, just consider Fu Ci, a cautious and suspicious person, who decided to listen to her and made such a bold decision after reading only one letter from her...

This alone shocked him and left him with mixed feelings.

When did he start trusting her so much?

He vividly remembered how much effort he had put in to gain his trust in his past life.

Putting aside the issue of trust, this decision itself was particularly irrational.

The Qi army is now stationed outside Jiangzhou. If they are not careful, Jiangzhou will fall. They are also suspected by the emperor, and the other two vassal kings are watching them with covetous eyes...

This is definitely not the best time to seize the Duan King's fiefdom and take over Ningxing Prefecture.

He didn't know who Ji Yunshuang was or what her purpose was, but Fu Ci shouldn't make this decision so easily.

In that instant, he thought of many things. But he quickly realized that he had overstepped his bounds.

The most important thing for soldiers is to obey orders.

Sure enough, he noticed that Fu Ci's expression was not good. Lu Yinheng was about to apologize, but Fu Ci confirmed his answer.

"Yes, you take your men and go to listen to General Ji's command, and work together to take Ningxing Prefecture."

Lu Yanheng said, "Given the current situation, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to rashly attack Prince Duan's fiefdom?"

Fu Ci said with a displeased expression, "You don't need to worry about that. General Ji knows what he's doing."

Seeing his expression, Lu Yanheng knew that he had made up his mind. If he said anything more, it would not be as simple as overstepping his bounds.

He put aside his doubts and began to think about who he should take with him to Ningxing Prefecture and how to conceal their whereabouts.

Before Ji Yunshuang even reached the Wang family's house, Old Madam Wang and Madam He, beaming like chrysanthemums, came over to her.

"Oh, Dalang's wife, you're back? It's been so long since I've seen you."

Grandma Wang said with a beaming smile, "I've been waiting for you for so long, you're finally back."

Xiao He also smiled broadly, imitating Gao Lan, and tried to take Ji Yunshuang's arm and talk to her affectionately.

However, before she could get close, Ji Yunshuang avoided her.

She looked at Old Lady Wang expressionlessly and said, "What are you waiting for me for? Haven't you been beaten in a long time and are you itching for a beating?"

Old Mrs. Wang instantly recalled the scene of being disciplined by Ji Yunshuang, and her teeth ached. She hated Ji Yunshuang to the core.

However, before the Lu family gained power, she dared not provoke Ji Yunshuang easily because of her ruthlessness.

Now, of course, they dare not provoke them even more.

She barely suppressed the hatred in her heart and said with a forced smile, "Big Brother's wife, you're really joking. Your aunt is here to ask you to take back the reward for my Erniu!"

Seeing Ji Yunshuang looking at her coldly, she felt a little scared and subconsciously wanted to back down.

Little He quickly took her arm and said, "Yes, your surname is Lu, and ours is Wang."

The reward my second brother received should never be given to someone outside the family. Those who know will know it's because my second sister-in-law is incompetent; those who don't will think your Lu family is greedy and has taken my second brother's reward!

She initially wanted to try to please Ji Yunshuang like Gao Lan did. However, judging from Ji Yunshuang's attitude, she clearly didn't want to pay any attention to them.

Since she couldn't win her over, she decided to give up. She needed to figure out how to get her things back first.

Old Mrs. Wang glanced approvingly at her third daughter-in-law and nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right, eldest son's wife. You don't want anyone to misunderstand you, do you? You might as well return the things to us to avoid affecting your family's reputation."

Ji Yunshuang chuckled and said, "Even if I were to return it, I should return it to Sister Gao. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, does it?"

Old Mrs. Wang puffed out her chest and said, spitting as she spoke, "How can it not be related? I am Wang Erniu's mother. You are an outsider. I am more qualified than you."

Ji Yunshuang said, "You are indeed his mother, but unfortunately, you used to despise him for being stupid and incompetent, and you favored your other two sons. Not only did you separate from the family, but you also severed all ties with him. No matter how much you talk, he has nothing to do with you anymore."

"It was just a few angry words, does that mean it's really nothing?"

Old Mrs. Wang slapped her thigh and said, "Wang Erniu has my blood in his veins. It was I who gave him his life. He can never get rid of me in this lifetime."

Now that he's in office, he should take me to enjoy a life of luxury, and he should help out his brothers.

Hearing the two arguing, many of the villagers who had come to watch the commotion showed expressions of agreement upon hearing this.

In this era, it's common for one person in the clan to prosper and lead the entire clan to a better life.

Moreover, Wang Erniu is the biological son of the Wang family's elderly couple, and he is the brother of Wang Dazhi and Wang Xiaofeng.

How could there be any grudges that last overnight with one's own father, mother, and brothers?

After Wang Erniu became successful, he should not only help the Wang family, but also those from his village.

Of course, the Wang couple were indeed too biased in the past.

They should be taught a lesson.

However, many people feel that it's enough to teach them a lesson; they shouldn't really disown their relatives.

Gao Lan returned from working in the fields just in time to hear what Granny Wang was saying. She was so angry that she wanted to slap her twice.

However, seeing the expressions of the villagers watching, she temporarily suppressed her anger and did not immediately berate her.

She winked at Ji Yunshuang and began to wipe away her tears, saying, "Mother, my Erniu is still fighting outside. He's risking his life. I can't sleep well every night because I'm afraid something might happen to him."

Many villagers who had relatives serving in the military felt a pang of sadness upon hearing Gao Lan's words.

That's right, they won't have peace of mind as long as they haven't returned.

(I'm not feeling well today, so I'll only be posting one chapter. I'll make up for it tomorrow. Sorry, and happy holidays everyone!)
